On Monday, July 14th, at Michael’s on the Lake in Moses Lake, Washington, the All Fruits Ripe Martini was born. My Northwest Fan Club had a party celebrating the release of my new tune All Fruits Ripe, and Sam the bartender at Michael’s created a new drink for the occasion. I’ve never had an alcoholic beverage created in honor of one of my songs, and I gotta say, it’s pretty cool. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to join the party in person, but thanks to modern technology, I was there by cell phone and webcam. (Too bad you can’t drink through either of those…) You can see many more pictures at the Tom Willner Fan Club and Terry Moore myspace pages. And, of course, if you’d like to try one of these out for yourself, here is the recipe:
All Fruits Ripe Martini by Sam at Michael’s on the Lake
1.5 oz Hypnotic
0.25 oz Barcardi Lite
0.25 oz Malibu Mango
Splash Lemonade
Shake
Strain into Martini Glass
Splash of Raspberry Pucker
Garnish with slice of Mango
Umbrella
So many thanks to Sam, Jordan, and everyone at Michael’s on the Lake, as well as Terry, Donna, and everyone in Moses Lake for yet another fun ride. If you have had an All Fruits Ripe drink, or you can get one for yourself, post a comment and let me know what you think!

Tom,
Thank you for the inspiration to come up with a new excuse to drink…Like we need one! 😉
But All Fruits Ripe is awesome both the song and the drink…People are asking for it cause it is such a cool looking drink!
Thanks to Jordan, Sam & the Michael's on the Lake staff for helping us to throw together an 'unveiling" on such short notice and putting up with our wild and crazy antics!
We are so glad you got to join us by modern technology on Monday and I would have felt better on Tuesday if you would have been able to drink through the webcam…but hey as Fan Club Pres you have to make sacrifices…hell have to earn that jacket some how!
Thank you for allowing us to take the ride with you they are always amazing!
Can't wait to hear the new song and see you!
Remember deep breaths…it's all good!
You Rock~my friend!

What a great time we all had, anyone who missed out call us I am sure we are all up to more “All fruits Ripe” again. ( it is healthy right????? And I am sure it falls into the daily requirements of fruit. Thanks for the great song Tom! It was great having you attend by web! Al and Donna
Do I need to bring a bottle of Hypnotic with me to Atlanta so we will be able to have an AFR after your show? It wouldn’t be right if we didn’t get to share at least one while I am there! 😉
We always save you a bar stool on AFR nights at Michael’s…can’t wait til you get to come and actually see the official home of your first official drink! You Rock Tom!
All Fruits Ripe!
Terry

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favorite musician & friend…may this be the beginning of a wonderful year!
You know there is "No Time Like Now" to "Celebrate" with an "All Fruits Ripe"…I owe you one in October!
On your birthday you can have your cake and eat it too! 😉
Happy Birthday Tom!
Aha!
Terry
Happy Birthday Tom!
All Fruits Ripe is a big hit at Michael’s!
Sam
FYI~AFR Watermelon isn’t bad either… 😉
OK – so I’ve tried getting an AFR drink for myself at several different Atlanta bars to no avail. Seems I’m just going to have to come out to Michael’s to experience it for myself!
We’ll save you a seat anytime!
I could sneak the ingredients in my suitcase…but not just the same as an original by Sam! Wait maybe I could bring Sam along on the trip…AFR!
😉

I have posted the AFR video on the Fan Club Page!
